Correct answer: D

  1. Find f(x)f(x)f(x) using the functional equation

Given f(x)+2f(1x)=x2+5,x>0f(x)+2f\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)=x^2+5, \qquad x>0f(x)+2f(x1​)=x2+5,x>0

Replace xxx by 1x\frac{1}{x}x1​: f(1x)+2f(x)=1x2+5f\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)+2f(x)=\frac{1}{x^2}+5f(x1​)+2f(x)=x21​+5

Now let a=f(x),b=f(1x)a=f(x), \qquad b=f\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)a=f(x),b=f(x1​) Then we have the system: a+2b=x2+5...(1)a+2b=x^2+5 \quad ...(1)a+2b=x2+5...(1) 2a+b=1x2+5...(2)2a+b=\frac{1}{x^2}+5 \quad ...(2)2a+b=x21​+5...(2)

Solve for aaa.

From (1)(1)(1): a=x2+5−2ba=x^2+5-2ba=x2+5−2b Substitute into (2)(2)(2): 2(x2+5−2b)+b=1x2+52(x^2+5-2b)+b=\frac{1}{x^2}+52(x2+5−2b)+b=x21​+5 2x2+10−4b+b=1x2+52x^2+10-4b+b=\frac{1}{x^2}+52x2+10−4b+b=x21​+5 2x2+10−3b=1x2+52x^2+10-3b=\frac{1}{x^2}+52x2+10−3b=x21​+5 3b=2x2+5−1x23b=2x^2+5-\frac{1}{x^2}3b=2x2+5−x21​ b=2x2+5−1x23b=\frac{2x^2+5-\frac{1}{x^2}}{3}b=32x2+5−x21​​

Then a=x2+5−2ba=x^2+5-2ba=x2+5−2b f(x)=x2+5−23(2x2+5−1x2)f(x)=x^2+5-\frac{2}{3}\left(2x^2+5-\frac{1}{x^2}\right)f(x)=x2+5−32​(2x2+5−x21​) f(x)=3x2+15−4x2−10+2x23f(x)=\frac{3x^2+15-4x^2-10+\frac{2}{x^2}}{3}f(x)=33x2+15−4x2−10+x22​​ f(x)=5−x2+2x23f(x)=\frac{5-x^2+\frac{2}{x^2}}{3}f(x)=35−x2+x22​​

So, f(x)=5−x2+2/x23f(x)=\frac{5-x^2+2/x^2}{3}f(x)=35−x2+2/x2​


  1. Compute α=∫12f(x) dx\alpha=\int_1^2 f(x)\,dxα=∫12​f(x)dx

α=∫125−x2+2/x23 dx\alpha=\int_1^2 \frac{5-x^2+2/x^2}{3}\,dxα=∫12​35−x2+2/x2​dx α=13∫12(5−x2+2x2)dx\alpha=\frac{1}{3}\int_1^2 \left(5-x^2+\frac{2}{x^2}\right)dxα=31​∫12​(5−x2+x22​)dx

Integrate termwise: ∫5 dx=5x,∫x2dx=x33,∫2x2dx=2∫x−2dx=−2x\int 5\,dx=5x, \qquad \int x^2 dx=\frac{x^3}{3}, \qquad \int \frac{2}{x^2}dx=2\int x^{-2}dx=-\frac{2}{x}∫5dx=5x,∫x2dx=3x3​,∫x22​dx=2∫x−2dx=−x2​

Hence α=13[5x−x33−2x]12\alpha=\frac{1}{3}\left[5x-\frac{x^3}{3}-\frac{2}{x}\right]_1^2α=31​[5x−3x3​−x2​]12​

At x=2x=2x=2: 10−83−1=9−83=19310-\frac{8}{3}-1=9-\frac{8}{3}=\frac{19}{3}10−38​−1=9−38​=319​

At x=1x=1x=1: 5−13−2=3−13=835-\frac{1}{3}-2=3-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{8}{3}5−31​−2=3−31​=38​

Thus α=13(193−83)=13⋅113=119\alpha=\frac{1}{3}\left(\frac{19}{3}-\frac{8}{3}\right)=\frac{1}{3}\cdot \frac{11}{3}=\frac{11}{9}α=31​(319​−38​)=31​⋅311​=911​


  1. Find g(x)g(x)g(x) using the second functional equation

Given 2g(x)−3g(12)=x,x>02g(x)-3g\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)=x, \qquad x>02g(x)−3g(21​)=x,x>0

Let c=g(12)c=g\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)c=g(21​) Then 2g(x)−3c=x2g(x)-3c=x2g(x)−3c=x g(x)=x+3c2g(x)=\frac{x+3c}{2}g(x)=2x+3c​

Now put x=12x=\frac{1}{2}x=21​: g(12)=12+3c2g\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)=\frac{\frac{1}{2}+3c}{2}g(21​)=221​+3c​ Since g(12)=cg\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)=cg(21​)=c, c=12+3c2c=\frac{\frac{1}{2}+3c}{2}c=221​+3c​ 2c=12+3c2c=\frac{1}{2}+3c2c=21​+3c −c=12-c=\frac{1}{2}−c=21​ c=−12c=-\frac{1}{2}c=−21​

Therefore g(x)=x+3(−12)2=x−322=x2−34g(x)=\frac{x+3\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)}{2}=\frac{x-\frac{3}{2}}{2}=\frac{x}{2}-\frac{3}{4}g(x)=2x+3(−21​)​=2x−23​​=2x​−43​


  1. Compute β=∫12g(x) dx\beta=\int_1^2 g(x)\,dxβ=∫12​g(x)dx

β=∫12(x2−34)dx\beta=\int_1^2 \left(\frac{x}{2}-\frac{3}{4}\right)dxβ=∫12​(2x​−43​)dx β=[x24−3x4]12\beta=\left[\frac{x^2}{4}-\frac{3x}{4}\right]_1^2β=[4x2​−43x​]12​

At x=2x=2x=2: 44−64=1−32=−12\frac{4}{4}-\frac{6}{4}=1-\frac{3}{2}=-\frac{1}{2}44​−46​=1−23​=−21​

At x=1x=1x=1: 14−34=−12\frac{1}{4}-\frac{3}{4}=-\frac{1}{2}41​−43​=−21​

So, β=−12−(−12)=0\beta=-\frac{1}{2}-\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)=0β=−21​−(−21​)=0


  1. Compute 9α+β9\alpha+\beta9α+β

9α+β=9(119)+0=119\alpha+\beta=9\left(\frac{11}{9}\right)+0=119α+β=9(911​)+0=11

So the correct option is: D: 11\boxed{\text{D: }11}D: 11​
